One reason for this is that many people spend hours in front of TVs and computers doing work, schoolwork, and leisure activities. In fact, more than 2 hours a day of regular TV viewing time has been linked to overweight and obesity.Other reasons for not being active include: relying on cars instead of walking, fewer physical demands at work or at home because of modern technology and conveniences, and lack of physical education classes in schools.People who are inactive are more likely to gain weight because they don't burn the calories that they take in from food and drinks.

...taken notice of my own worldviews. Instead, I just lived life as it was and worked by the daily routine. I still do not fully understand this worldview, and probably never will. I like to focus strictly on the positive things that life has to offer. I have been told by many that I have a positive attitude under all circumstances. This is something that I try to preach because to me there is no sense in complaining about the world because it will not change just because of one’s disapproval. When I am feeling down I try to think of the good things that I have in life and look forward to them instead of worrying about the bad. This world is not a utopia and nobody is going to be happy all of the time while living in it, but from my worldview I try to be as happy as possible.
Ever since I can remember, finding the positive things in life and focusing on them has always been my worldview. I look for the best in everything and everyone. In the movie the Blind Side, Leigh Anne Tuohy comes across a boy walking down the street. She is able to look past Michael’s outer appearance and the place that he has left behind and accepts him as her own. Like Leigh Anne, I am not one to “judge a book by its cover.” I look past flaws or negative aspects and focus on the positive. I think the major source of my worldview is my parents. They raised me right, never forcing me to do anything that I didn’t want to and...

The nameless narrator in the introduction of My Antonia by Willa Cather states that Ántonia, an immigrant Bohemian girl who comes to America with her family, symbolizes as much as she is in character. To Jim, narrator of the rest of the novel and Ántonia’s childhood friend, Ántonia represents the beauty and freedom of nature. Pretty, lively, and tremendously generous, Ántonia mesmerizes Jim. Jim described her eyes as being “big and warm and full of light, like the sun shining on brown pools in the wood”, her skin as being “brown, too, and in her cheeks she had a glow of rich, dark color”, and her “brown hair was curly and wild- looking” (Cather 47). With her determination and courage, Ántonia overcomes hardships along her journey in America.
Ántonia and her family arrive in Nebraska for a better life. Ántonia’s father, a gentle, intelligent patriarch of the Bohemian immigrant family, was heartbroken about leaving his friends and family in Bohemia. Mrs. Shimerda, Ántonia’s self- centered, nosy, and complaining mother, made her family come to America for a better life and most importantly to give Ambrosch, the Shimerdas’ eldest son, the chance to become a wealthy farmer. Ambrosch was “short and broad-backed, with a close- cropped, flat head, and a wide, flat face. His hazel eyes were little and shrewd, like his mother’s, but more sly and suspicious. . . “(Cather 47). The family stayed at an overcharged farmhouse not suited to the harsh Nebraska winters,...

...FILE SHARING
Ethical Debate with Today's Technology
(INTRO)
You may have illegal content on your computer right now! File sharing has become a very large issue today in society even though it has existed for decades. It has been the recent advances in our technology that has made it main stream and in the eyes of the general public. File sharing today tests the limits of technology along with our ethics making it a fuzzy grey area.
When discussing file sharing's effect on society, first you should have a brief understanding about the terminology, technology, and methods that are used. File sharing in its simplest form is "anything that allows the swapping of files (audio, graphic, animation, etc) between users across a network."
The breakdown of file sharing can be lumped into two basic categories, physical and virtual.
Since the invention of the cassette tape, back in 1962 (about.com), people have been transferring data. Friends would copy a tape they borrowed or purchased from another friend and the chain was never ending. When the camcorders started to get smaller and more affordable movies would be bootlegged from the theater and sold.
Technology today has changed immensely but still we find ourselves in the same habits of sharing. Friends can now burn CDs within 5 minutes and DVDs within an hour. The one thing that has changed is the ability to...

...Section One
Willa Cather was born December 7, 1873 on a farm near Winchester, Virginia, and she died on April 24, 1947. When she was nine-years-old the Cathers moved to Nebraska joining her grandparents. Willa Cather planned to major in science at the University of Nebraska hoping to become a medical doctor, but when one of her essays was published in the Nebraska State Journal she became a regular contributor to the Journal, changed her major, and graduated with a B.A. in English. Willa Cather is the winner of a Pulitzer Prize and she's also the author of more than fifteen other books including O Pioneers!, The Song of the Lark, and A Lost Lady. My Antonia takes place in Nebraska during the late 1800's and the early 1900's. Jim is a orphan who traveled from Virginia to Nebraska to live with his grandparents, he meets this bohemian girl named Antonia and they become best friends. Later on in the book more people are introduced such as the Harlings and the Cutters. When Antonia moved into the town she started working for the Cutters, and as she worked for them she changed, she no longer liked to do anything that she and Jim use to do together. Mr. Cutter beats up Jim because he went to go see Antonia. Jim then goes to college at the University in Lincoln and meets Gaston Cleric who becomes his new best friend. Jim discovers Lena Lingard goes to the same university and they start doing activities together. Jim leaves with Cleric to go to Boston and finishes...

...The Growth of My Antonia
Nebraska, the Cornhusker state, the state that most people tend to forget, yet ironically is also the setting for one of the most unforgettable love novels in America. Willa Cather writes My Antonia, setting it in the image of her hometown. In it, she formulates her memories into an extraordinary love story where two people have a bond stronger than love, stronger than that of husband and wife. In doing so, she creates a character that is not only strong but also lovable by all; a character name Antonia. Throughout the course of My Antonia, Willa Cather develops Antonia Shirmerdas into a character of strength and integrity through her experience as young immigrant, as a hired girl and eventually as a pioneer woman.
As a young girl living in a place far from home, Antonia grows from an innocent young Bohemian into a rough American tomboy. When Jim first meets Antonia, she is still an angelic little girl with an optimistic feel of the world. Jim, at one point, recalls “what the conductor had said about her eyes. They were big and shiny, like the sun shining on brown pools in the wood” (Cather 17). She is always happy looks at things in the most positive way. After her father’s death, however, Antonia and her family are faced with a financial crisis, and Antonia is forced to work to fill the gap left by her father. With only a few months of manual labor, Antonia’s appearance completely changes. As Mrs....
